The Story:

Sebastian Ramirez, a native of Quindio, Colombia—a region renowned for its rich coffee culture—is a fourth-generation coffee grower. Six years ago, Sebastian transitioned from studying law to taking over his father’s farm, El Placer, located in the Buenos Aires de Calarcá village. The farm, spanning 14 hectares and situated at an altitude of 1,650-2,000 meters above sea level, is shaded by native trees, fostering ideal coffee-growing conditions. Today, Sebastian Ramirez is recognized as one of Colombia’s prominent specialty coffee producers, continually striving to produce exceptional coffee and uphold the legacy of El Placer farm.

The cherries are meticulously selected, ensuring that 95% are perfectly ripe and 5% are semi-ripe. This careful selection process is followed by a precise anaerobic fermentation in 200-liter tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°C. The beans are submerged in water with an oxygen pump and CO2 injection for 48 hours, allowing the flavors to develop in a truly unique way.

Sebastian’s role as a mentor in the Young Producer Program further highlights his commitment to the future of coffee farming. By sharing his knowledge and passion with the next generation, he is helping to ensure that the tradition of excellence in Colombian coffee continues to thrive.
